Gu Erbai's Pastoral Life

Chapter 357 Do You Just Want to Buy Me a Cup of Tea?

A group of guards saw that there was nothing wrong, so they came to ask Madam.

Gu Erbai shook his head, "What can I do? Let's hurry down the mountain, before it gets dark again."

The guards nodded, took a look at the monk's back, and said strangely, "Just now I was so weak that I couldn't even stand upright, and I bumped into Madam, now I can't even hear a sound when I walk like a wind. He looks like a worldly expert."

"That's right... I always feel a little strange."

After the words fell, the rest of the servants also echoed.

Listening to their suspicious words, Gu Erbai couldn't find it funny, "You trained guards, who doesn't think it's strange that you are suspected of persecuting your master? Occupational diseases, I understand."

All the guards, "..."

Treating this incident as an insignificant episode, Gu Erbai grabbed a green chrysanthemum, yawned loudly, and continued walking towards the Guanyin statue on the mountainside.

However, after taking eight or nine unscrupulous steps, her body suddenly stopped.

It was the guard who was following behind who immediately alerted, "What's the matter, madam?"

Gu Erbai shook his empty sleeves by accident, his face turned pale in an instant, he reached out his hand to touch the armhole and said in surprise, "Where is my tracking mirror?"

When the words fell, the guards were taken aback for a moment, and then they reacted extremely quickly and thought of the suspicious monk just now.

"It must have been stolen by the monk just now. Ma'am, don't worry. You guys stay here and guard Madam. I'll help Madam find it later."

The leading guard assigned a few people to stay, and was about to turn back while speaking.

Seeing the situation, Gu Erbai hurriedly stopped him, "Wait, what if it's to divert the tiger away from the mountain?"

"That……"

"I'll go with you, even if he runs away, the monk won't be able to run away from the temple. When I find him, I have to ask him why I saved him, and he will bite back."

It is indeed understandable that the magic weapon of the tracking mirror is coveted.

But it is too much for a Buddhist believer to do such a treacherous thing.

"it is good."

After discussing with the guards, they also thought that this method was the safest.

In this world, the person who can hurt others at the hands of their brothers has not yet been born.

Servant and Gu Erbai returned to the fork in the road where he had rescued the old monk just now, and looked towards the path that the monk had just left, and there was no trace.

Such a long path is straight and has no twists and turns. The monk disappeared without a trace after a few words. It seems that they guessed it right. This monk is definitely not an ordinary person. Previously, deliberately pretending to be dizzy was also a deliberate attempt to snatch the tracking mirror.

"The monk disappeared in such a short period of time. The depth of his inner strength is definitely not something to be taken lightly. Mount Putuo Temple is so big, we may not be able to protect the lady separately, and we may look for the lady everywhere. I am afraid we will find the dawn. How about Let's send Madam back to the mansion first, and bring a group of brothers to search, Madam is it okay?"

The leading guard thought about it, and asked Gu Erbai.

Gu Erbai took a breath, as if he was thinking about this method.

Xiao Zhuang said that hundreds of years ago, this tracking mirror had a fierce battle with the Guantang Ding, the treasure of Putuo Temple, and finally the tracking mirror won a big victory, destroying the prestige of Putuo Temple.

In this way, it is the enemy of the entire temple, and the monk is afraid that he just wants to snatch it back and destroy it for revenge.

If it is according to the servant guard's words, it will definitely take some time. The tracking mirror is not in the hands of Yi Chi Lao Dao now, and it can't exert its power. It must be at the mercy of it. It's scum.

Wouldn't it be a loss of face if the wedding gift sent by the alchemy village was destroyed in the hands of the former enemies within two days?In the future, how Uncle Qing and Alchemy Village will get along with each other will definitely not work.

The more Gu Erbai thought about it, the more anxious he became. Finally, he stomped his feet and calmed down his messy state of mind. He thought about everything from saving the monk to when he left. Where are you going for tea?"

All the guards were stunned for a moment, and then said in unison, "Jingxinzhai in Putuo Temple!"

"It's there. Let's go there first. If there is no one, we will follow what you said and go directly to the mansion to inform people to come and search for it."

"it is good."

After the discussion, Gu Erbai walked towards Jingxin Zhai with all the guards.

Walking along the long path to the end is the backyard of Putuo Temple, passing through several courtyards, passing through several promenades, passing through dozens of arched doors, and the dry leaves underfoot creak.

However, what is strange is that they went all the way unimpeded.

In such a quiet monastery, suddenly there was such a loud noise passing by, not to mention that all the guards were carrying short knives and long swords, and there was a bloodthirsty suffocation faintly exuding from their bodies, but no monk came forward to question him.

Instead, they inquired about the location of Jingxinzhai all the way, and the little masters gave very clear instructions.

Such an atmosphere gives people a sense of inviting you into the urn for no reason.

The guards gradually felt strange, and Gu Erbai also stopped.

Autumn leaves are falling, oval-shaped yellowing tree leaves, falling from the tree lightly, dancing lightly with the wind, seemingly powerless and unintentional, but suddenly become fierce when they fall on the heads of the guards, and then as fast as Lian Jiacheng's last Even the well-trained guards couldn't react quickly, and quickly tapped their acupoints.

The guards couldn't even say a word, they were frozen in place without moving.

Gu Erbai took two steps back, at that moment he was fully aware that he had fallen into the enemy's trap.

Looking at the horrific scene around her, she swallowed nervously, clenched her hand and said, "Which of your masters, what kind of grievances do you have with me, you have to bother to set up such a trap today to lure me into the bait?"

"Amitabha, benefactor, I have offended you."

At this time, after opening an arched door, a monk dressed in cassock and saluting with one hand walked out quietly. It was none other than the monk she rescued just now.

Gu Erbai narrowed his eyes slightly, as expected, "Just now I kindly saved the master, I don't want to be bitten back, snatch my mirror, and lead me to this place."

"Amitabha, goodness is goodness, the donor has misunderstood.

It is precisely because the benefactor just passed by, kindly saved the old monk's life, and the old monk thought of repaying it.

But just now the old monk invited the benefactor three times, but the benefactor never responded to the old monk, so the old monk had no choice but to come up with this bad plan.

The act of stealing the mirror is really helpless. This mirror is a magic weapon of the Taoist school, and it has no other use in this old monk. Now return it to the benefactor. I hope the benefactor will forgive me. "

As he said that, the monk came up to her, so fast that Gu Erbai didn't see clearly, the tracking mirror was spread out in a rough old hand, and the mirror was intact.

Gu Erbai glanced at him suspiciously, and didn't dare to pick up the tracking mirror, thinking that the mirror flew into her sleeve in an instant.

She was a little confused by the old monk's tricks, and frowned slightly, "You...do you want to invite me to drink a cup of your mountain stream tea?"

"Of course not."

With a smile on his face, the monk slowly straightened his waist and looked directly at her, "The benefactor is kind-hearted and saved my life. I will naturally return something with the same price."
